Sholpan [36]
Monetary policy is a set of tools that a nation's central bank has available to promote sustainable economic growth by controlling the overall supply of money that is available to the nation's banks, its consumers, and its businesses.

The U.S. Treasury Department has the ability to create money, but the Federal Reserve influences the supply of money in the economy, largely through open market operations (OMO). Essentially, this means buying financial securities when easing monetary policy and selling financial securities when tightening monetary policy. The Fed's preferred securities for OMO are U.S. Treasuries and agency mortgage-backed securities.

The goal is to keep the economy humming along at a rate that is neither too hot nor too cold. The central bank may force up interest rates on borrowing in order to discourage spending or force down interest rates to inspiremore borrowing and spending.

The main weapon at its disposal is the nation's money. The central bank sets the rates it charges to loan money to the nation's banks. When it raises or lowers its rates, all financial institutions tweak the rates they charge all of their customers, from big businesses borrowing for major projects to home buyers applying for mortgages.

All of those customers are rate-sensitive. They're more likely to borrow when rates are low and put off borrowing when rates are high

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Monetary policy is a set of actions that can be undertaken by a nation's central bank to control the overall money supply and achieve sustainable economic growth.
Monetary policy can be broadly classified as either expansionary or contractionary.
Some of the available tools include revising interest rates up or down, directly lending cash to banks, and changing bank reserve requirements

What is not a reason for the ongoing crisis in ukraine? ukraine gave its nuclear weapons to western powers. russia's geopolitica
Katena32 [7]
<span>The economic civil war between eastern and western Ukraine is not a reason for the ongoing crisis, because said economic civil war doesn't really exist. Any economic conflicts existing are by and large between Ukraine and Russia, involving gas pipeline disputes. Meanwhile, the other choices all led to or built up to the current crisis. The surrender of nuclear weapons mandated by the Budapest memorandum led to the closer Ukraine-West ties that have Russia initiating its annexation to consolidate power and fulfill it's geopolitical ambitions, and the election and subsequent deposition of Viktor Yanukovych exacerbated the instability in the political environment, and furthered the divisions between the different regional and cultural areas, some of which have significant portions of Russian-sympathizing citizens.</span>
